Chu Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 (edited) AMT Ford C 900 Roadway This built was very challeged first of all, the mirrors was a hell to assemble and I didn't finished. I use one from the revell pete. The Good: the chassis, interior, the engine,the trasmission and painting in two tones were good to work, The Bad Lack of experience didn't use the right # of sand paper, thats let the tranmission with uneven look on the top of the surface. Trying to detail the mudflaps and is still a paint, I will try to working on it the next built. Fiting the engine with the radiator and the drive shaft also was a challenge. Thankfully I left unglue one of the crossmember that support the transmission. The Ugly THE D... mirors!!! Mistakes assembling the cab I used liquid glue and damage the windows and now look kind of foggy. I cut the cab frames in 45 degre angle to fit the engine inside the cab. Ah!! and one of the front wheels has alitle turn to the left and yeah I use white in the dorr handeles and other details due to I want to finish this truck hope you liked.
